Abstract:
Mode locking of a cw Nd:YLF laser is sensitive to cavity-length mismatch. When a cw mode-locked Nd:YLF laser is turned on the power dissipation from the lamps causes a slow change in the cavity length because of heating of mechanical resonator parts. A method is presented to eliminate these warming-up effects.
